Heaven's Gate

Song - Heaven's Gate

The gentle cooling breeze,
Does dance at its own will.
The glowing fiery sunset,
Is Mother Nature’s thrill.
Walkin' through the forest,
Oh I feel so alive.
And I see my own destiny,
When lookin' in your eyes.

(chorus)
Now should I leave this world,
Someday before you do.
I'll wait on you patiently,
'Til your journey's through.
You'll find me with open arms,
And a smile upon my face.
Standin' just a waitin',
There at Heaven's gate.

Fate's ocean can create,
Waves that crash into shore.
We'll ride their crest together,
Afraid of life no more.
Just knowin' that our goals,
Have been one and the same.
And sharin' everything we are,
Much more than our last name.

(chorus)
So should I leave this world,
Someday before you do.
I'll wait on you patiently,
'Til your journey's through.
You'll find me with open arms,
And a smile upon my face.
Standin' just a waitin',
There at Heaven's gate.

(bridge)
Let's make the most of ev'ry,
Fleeting moment of the day.
Though time is always borrowed,
Let's spend it our own way.

(instrumental)

(chorus)
And should I leave this world,
Someday before you do.
I'll wait on you patiently,
'Til your journey's through.
You'll find me with open arms,
And a smile upon my face.
Standin' just a waitin',
There at Heaven's gate.
I'll be standin' just a waitin',
There at Heaven's gate.

The older we get, the more we think and write about leaving this world. Good song.

Hi Jim,

How very true, one cannot deny that. Age has many advantages that a young person may not realize. Especially, a better understanding of human nature. "Be wary of what politicians promise before elections". "If it is too good to be true then it probably is". Thanks for the feedback.

Ross.

Sweet lyrics, Ross, with a striped down and simple g/v that gives it a wistful, but peaceful overall feel. Well done.
